The new FireFly Lighted Keyboard uses patented Electro-Luminescent (EL) technology to produce a soft glow that highlights the keyboard's lettering and alleviates eyestrain common among computer users. This keyboard is being introduced at CeBIT, the world's largest computer trade show, in Hannover, Germany, March 18-24th, 2004. The FireFly Keyboard will be on display at IC INTRACOM's exhibit located at Hall 16, Stand C06.

"The FireFly Keyboard offers advantages not found in earlier lighted keyboards or more recent knock-off products that may violate the FireFly patent," said Ben Zupan, Director of Global Marketing for IC INTRACOM. "Under normal use, the Electro-Luminescence has a lifetime of 20 years and features a convenient on/off switch. The FireFly offers a better experience for home-office workers, college students, PC gamers, LAN party enthusiasts, graphic artists, case modders and others."

The FireFly Lighted Keyboard features a slim form factor, full size keys with precise and quiet key action. The patented Sapphire Blue Electro Luminescence is ideal for low-light and nighttime environments. The FireFly's 104 key layout includes translucent key caps and 17 Multimedia keys. The FireFly is fully compatible with hahahahahahas ME, hahahahahahas 98SE, hahahahahahas 2000 and hahahahahahas XP.

like the old keyboards on the apple powerbooks that light up for when you use them at night

A nightlight for all the kids rooms!

I might have to get one of those. Although I never look at keys when I type.. none of you guys should. :)
It would just be cool

I don't look at keys when typing but I'd buy that coz its cool anyway. Same as I'm gonna get flat screen monitors for both my computers, coz it looks cool :glugglug

Cool it is, I will have to get a few! :)

hmmm thats pretty cool:thumbsup

Looks cool, I was just reading an article about those keyboards in the last esquire :)

What will they think of next?

too bad is a shit ass keayboard....


make it ergonomic and THEN we're in bizzness! :Graucho

Now that is a cool keyboard
Just what I need, I want one.

I need one of those.. I do too much in the dark while hubby is watching TV

New toy ?? Gotta have it :winkwink:

I've seen the knock-offs in China Town for about $10 a piece. Nice idea but the glowing light would be an eye-sore for me when I type at night. Probably just use it to look cool :) Glad they added an on,off button for it.

That's really cool - can't believe they didn't think of it sooner:thumbsup

They should add an adjustment button too ... from light glow to piercing eyeballs :)

You'd think with all the people and brains at Microsoft they would have done this already.
